EPD: Kraft with low density polyethylene (LDPE) facing material for fiberglass insulation, 0.075 kg/m2 (Owens Corning)

Owens Corning® PINK Next Gen Fiberglas insulation is a preformed, flexible blanket insulation. It is produced in Rvalues from 8 to 49 in US production facilities and R-values from 8 to 54 in Canadian production facilities, with thicknesses ranging from 2 ½ inches to 14 inches (US) and 2 ½ inches to 16 inches (Canada). It is available unfaced, or faced with Kraft, foil, or foil-scrim-Kraft (FSK). The products covered by this EPD are used as cavity wall insulation, cavity floor insulation, and attic insulation. PINK Next Gen Fiberglas insulation has excellent stiffness and recovery characteristics. Finished, unfaced products manufactured in the US have an average total recycled content of 65%. Finished, unfaced products manufactured in Canada have an average total recycled content up to 73%. The following product names reflect differences in final product dimensions, application, and R-value only. All PINK Next Gen Fiberglas insulation products included in this study are made using consistent binder chemistry, and manufacturing processes, making it appropriate to group them within a single EPD.
